I probably won't since I'm in England, but I'll look out for one of
those as well.

I have to confess that I'd almost forgotten that 3rd party manufacturers
still make wide-angle prime lenses.  All I seem to see in shops around
here are various zooms & a few telephotos.

One of my main subjects is musicians playing live, which means I really
need the speed of a good prime lens, and a wide-ish angle for shots from
right up by the stage would be nice.  Less camera wobble and more depth
of field, too.
